8 Installation points to remember This product is designed for fuel-injected, automatic transmission vehicles only. Installing it in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to its intended use. Virtual tach Virtual Tach is the default RPM-sensing method for the new remote start systems. Virtual Tach gives the installer the performance of a hard wired tach wire, with the convenience of voltage sensing. It is far superior to any voltage-sense feature you ve tried before. Virtual Tach monitors the cranking voltage of the vehicle using a very fast micro controller and an analog-to-digital converter. The microprocessor saves the base voltage as a reference. When Virtual Tach sees the slightest uptick in voltage, indicating that the alternator is charging the battery, the starter motor shuts off instantly. D2D The system has the ability to interface with an Xpresskit module through the D2D port. The advantage to using a D2D interface is that there is less wiring involved in the installation. Check the Xpresskit module installation guide to determine which wires are not needed, and which options are available. For more information visit Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

9 Before beginning the installation Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote start system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle s systems. Many new vehicles use low-voltage or multiplexed systems that can be damaged by low resistance testing devices, such as test lights and logic probes (computer safe test lights). Test all circuits with a high quality digital multi-meter before making connections. Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio. If equipped with an air bag, avoid disconnecting the battery if possible. Many airbag systems display a diagnostic code through the warning lights after the lights lose power. Disconnecting the battery causes the anti-theft code to be erased, which can then require a trip to the dealer. Before mounting the LED or Valet Switch, check with the customer about the mounting locations. To avoid accidental battery drainage; turn off the interior lights or remove the dome light fuse. Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car. After the installation Test all functions. The Using Your System section of the Owner s Guide is very helpful when testing. When testing, don t forget that this system is equipped with Nuisance Prevention Circuitry (NPC). NPC can bypass trigger zones, making them appear to stop working. See the Nuisance Prevention Circuitry section of the Owner's Guide. Review and complete the Safety Check section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly Directed Electronics.

10 Component locations and finding wires For detailed information on where to locate components, and how to find the wires you need, please refer to the Direct Tech web site at Valet/program switch IMPORTANT! When the vehicle is delivered, please show the user where this switch is located and how to disarm the system with it. Ensure that the location you pick for the switch has sufficient clearance to the rear. The switch should be well hidden. It should be placed so passengers or stored items (such as in a glove box or center console) cannot accidentally hit it. The switch fits into a 9/32-inch hole. This system has Remote Valet. The user can enter and exit Valet Mode without having to use the Valet/Program switch. This feature was introduced so that switch location was less critical in day-to-day use. As long as the Valet/Program switch can be reached to disarm without a transmitter, easy access is not important Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

11 Status LED Things to remember when positioning the Status LED: It should be visible from both sides and the rear of the vehicle, if possible. It needs at least 1/2-inch clearance to the rear. It is easiest to remove a small panel, such as a switch blank or a dash bezel, before drilling a 9/32-inch hole. Use quick-disconnects near the LED wires if the panel is removable. This lets mechanics or other installers remove the panel without cutting the wires Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 11

12 Making your wiring connections Before making your connections, plan how your wires will be routed through the vehicle. For instance, the red 12V constant input and the remote start ignition wires are often routed together to the ignition switch harness. In order to keep the wiring neat and make it harder to find, you may wish to wrap these wires together in electrical tape or conceal them in tubing similar to what the manufacturer used. There are two acceptable ways of making a wire connection - solder con nections and crimp connectors. When properly performed, either type of connection is reliable and trouble-free. Regardless of whether you solder your connections or you use mechanical type crimp-on connections, ensure that all connections are mechanically sound and that they are insulated, especially when connecting data lines in the vehicle. Cheap electrical tape, especially when poorly applied, is not a reliable insulator. It often falls off in hot weather. Use good quality electrical tape or heat shrink. Never twist-and-tape the wires together without soldering. Never use fuse taps, as they can damage fuse box terminals. If you use tapping connectors such as T-Taps (not to be confused with Scotch- Locks), avoid using them in higher-current applications (constant 12V, ground, etc.) These connectors are inferior in quality and should be avoided Directed Electronics.

Connecting directly to a solenoid, motor, or other high-current device will cause the module to fail Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 29

30 Neutral safety switch interface Some vehicles do not have an electrical neutral safety switch. Instead, the vehicle has a mechanical neutral safety switch that physically interrupts the starter wire and is used when the vehicle is in any drive gear. If the remote start is interfaced before this switch, it will provide protection from starting in gear. However, some vehicles combine the column shift mechanism and the mechanical neutral safety switch into one mechanical part. Note: You must complete the remote start system installation before doing the following test. Ensure that the remote start system is functioning normally. This includes connecting to the brake as a shut-down. Testing the neutral safety switch Make sure there is adequate clearance to the front and rear of the vehicle because it may move slightly. Make sure the hood is closed and there are no remote start shut-downs active. Set the emergency brake. Turn the key to the run position, this will release the shifter. Place the car in drive (D). Place your foot directly over the brake pedal, but do not depress it. Be ready to step on the brake if the starter engages. Activate the remote start system. If the starter engages, immediately depress the brake to shut the remote start system down. If the starter does not engage, no additional safety system is required. If the starter engages and the vehicle is a General Motors product or Dodge Dakota pickup, you can find an alternative shut-down method to prevent the starter from engaging. Refer to for Document 1008 under the Resource tab. If the vehicle is not a General Motors product or a Dodge Dakota pickup, please call Directed Electronics Technical Support for an alternative shut-down method. Do not return the vehicle to the customer until this feature is properly installed! Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

31 Plug-in LED and valet/program switch These plug into the module. The Status LED plugs into the white two-pin socket, while the Valet /Program Switch should be plugged into the blue two-pin socket. The Status LED and Valet switch fits into a 9/32-inch hole. Status LED Valet/Program Switch D2D programmer interface - 4-pin red plug The 4-pin red port is for interfacing with an Xpresskit module through D2D, or you can use it for programming with the Bitwriter. If the Xpresskit module is unplugged so the port can be used for Bitwriter programming, you must power down the remote start system by unplugging the 12-pin harness before reconnecting the the Xpresskit module. Once the Xpresskit module has been plugged in, reconnect the remote start 12-pin harness and proceed to reprogram the Xpresskit module. For more information go to Directed Electronics.

33 Tachometer settings Virtual tach To program Virtual Tach: After the install is complete, remote start the car. If the car does not start on the first attempt, let the remote start attempt again. Once the car starts, let it run until the parking lights come on. When the parking lights come on, shut off the remote start with the remote - that's it! Virtual Tach is programmed. To reset Virtual Tach, go into the remote programming grid and choose option #4. Virtual Tach cannot be reset with the Bitwriter. Virtual Tach handles disengaging the starter motor during remote starting it does not address over-rev. If the customer wants to have the over-rev protection capability, the tach wire must be connected. This may involve more installation shop charges than initially quoted. Important: If the Virtual Tach mode over cranks or doesn't crank the vehicle long enough to start and run the car, use the Bitwriter to add or subtract the starter output time. You can adjust the output time in increments of 50mSec of the learned time using the Bitwriter Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 33

34 Tach learning To learn the tach signal: 1. Start the vehicle with the key. 2. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Valet/Program switch. 3. After 3 seconds the LED will light constant when the tach signal is learned. 4. Release the Valet/Program switch Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

35 Programming jumpers AVISTART 5103 Tach threshold On/Off In most cases, this jumper can be left in the Off position. Some new vehicles use less than 12 volts in their ignition systems. The unit may have trouble learning the tach signal in these vehicles. Changing the jumper to the On setting changes the trigger threshold of the digital tach circuit so that it will work with these type vehicles. Light flash (+) / (-) polarity This jumper is used to determine the light flash output. In the (+) position, the onboard relay is enabled and the unit outputs (+)12V on the white H1/11 wire. In the (-) position, the onboard relay is disabled and the white H1/11 supplies a 200mA (-) output, suitable for driving factory parking light relays. Note: For parking light circuits that draw 10 amps or more, the internal jumper must be switched to a (-) light flash output. P/N 8617 or a standard automotive SPDT relay must be used on the H1/11 light flash output harness wire Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 35

36 Transmitter/receiver Learn Routine The system comes with transmitters that have been taught to the receiver. The receiver can store up to 4 different transmitter codes in memory. If the learn routines have been programmed previously using the Bitwriter, the routines may be locked. Before proceeding with reprogramming the learn routines, they must be unlocked with the Bitwriter. This cannot be done manually with the Valet switch. Bitwriters require software v2.6 Bitwriters with date code of 6A or older require an IC upgrade (p/n 998M). Some Bitwriters with a date code of 6B do not require the IC upgrade, refer to Tech Tip # 1112 for more information. Use the following learn routine to add transmitters to the system: The Valet/Program switch, plugged into the blue port, is used for programming. There is a basic sequence to remember whenever programming this unit: Door, Key, Choose, Transmit and Release. 1. Open a door. (The GREEN wire, h1/8, or the VIOLET, H1/6 must be connected.) Insert the key. Turn the ignition to the ON position. The heavy gauge pink wire must be connected. Choose. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Program switch corresponding to the number of the desired function step listed in the following table. Once you have selected the function step, press the switch once more and hold it. The LED flashes and the siren chirps to confirm the selected functional step. Do not release the Program switch Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

37 Step Function 1 Auto Learn Standard Configuration (default) The auto learn configuration automatically sets up the remote button configuration. 2 Delete remotes: This feature erases all remotes from the system memory. This is useful in cases when a customer s remote is lost or stolen. Note: Does not reset the programmed features of the system or reset the Virtual Tach setting. 3 Reset Features: This resets all the features of the system to the factory default settings. Note: Does not delete the remotes from the system or reset the Virtual Tach setting. 4 Virtual Tach Reset: Deletes all previously learned values for Virtual Tach, and on the next remote start sequence the unit begins virtual tach initialization. Note: The Zap feature on the Bitwriter does not reset the Virtual tach setting. 4.Transmit. While holding the Valet/Program switch, press the button on the remote control. The siren chirps to confirm that the code has been successfully programmed. It is not possible to teach a remote control button to the system more than once. 5. Release. Once the code is learned, the Valet/Program switch can be released. You can advance from programming one channel to another by releasing the Valet/Program switch and tapping it to advance channels and then holding it Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 37

38 If you want to program Step 3 after programming Step 1, release the Valet/ Program switch, press it twice and release it to advance to Step 3. Then press it once more and hold it. The siren chirps three times and the LED flashes three times to confirm it is ready to receive the code from the transmitter.. Learn Routine is exited if: Door is closed. The ignition is turned off The program switch is pressed too many times More than 15 seconds elapses between steps Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

39 Transmitter configurations The transmitters are programmed with the standard configuration by using the Auto Learn functions in the Transmitter/Receiver Learn Routine.

40 Multi-level security arming Multi-Level Security Arming is a feature that allows the user to select which system inputs or sensors will be active, or will be bypassed when the system is armed. (See Table of Zones section of this guide.) Pressing the arm button again within five seconds of arming the system activates the Multi-Level Security feature. Each time the arm button is pressed after arming, a different security level is selected. The different levels of security are selected as follows: Pressing one time: The siren chirps once. The system is armed. Pressing a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp. Zone Two is now bypassed. Pressing a third time within five seconds: The siren chirps three times followed by a long chirp. Zone Four is now bypassed. Pressing a fourth time within five seconds: The siren chirps four times followed by a long chirp. Zones Two and Four are now bypassed. Pressing a fifth time within five seconds: The siren chirps five times followed by a long chirp. All input zones, except the ignition, are now bypassed Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

41 System features learn routine The System Features Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to access and change any of the feature settings using the Valet/program switch, however this process can be simplified using the Bitwriter. Any of the settings can be changed and then assigned to one of four remote controls. This feature is called Owner Recognition. Each time a particular remote control is used to disarm the system, the assigned feature settings are recalled. Owner Recognition is only possible when programming the unit via the Bitwriter. If programming with the Bitwriter, the learn routine can be locked or unlocked. If the learn routine has been locked using the Bitwriter, it must be unlocked with Bitwriter - this cannot be done manually with the Valet switch Open a door. (The GREEN wire, H1/8 or the VIOLET, H1/6 must be connected. Ignition. Turn the ignition On, and then Off. Select a Menu. Press and hold the Valet Program switch. When the LED flashes once and the siren chirps, Menu One is selected. Continue to hold the switch until the LED flashes twice and the siren chirps twice, Menu Two is selected. Release the switch after the menu choice has been selected Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 41

42 4. Choose. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet/Program switch the number of times corresponding to the feature number you want to program, and then press and hold the switch. (See Feature Menus.) After a second the LED flashes and the siren chirps to indicate which feature is accessed. For example, in Menu Three, a group of five flashes indicates access to the activation pulse setting (Feature 3-5). The siren also chirps eight times Transmit. The transmitter is used to select the desired setting. Pressing changes the feature to the one chirp setting. Pressing changes the setting to the 2 chirp setting (or chirps two or more times for features with more than 2 settings). Release, the Valet/program switch. You can advance between features by pressing and releasing the Valet/Program switch the number of times it takes to move from the feature you just programmed to the feature you want. For example: If you just programmed Feature 1-2 in Menu One, and you then want to program Feature 1-3 to Off, press and release the program switch once to advance from Feature 1-2 to Feature 1-3. Then press it once more and hold it. The LED flashes in groups of 3, and the siren chirps to confirm that you have accessed Feature 1-3. The learn routine is exited when: The door is closed. The ignition is turned on. The Valet/Program switch is pressed too many times. More than 15 seconds elapses between programming steps. One long siren chirp indicates that the Learn Routine has been exited Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

46 Feature descriptions The features of the system are described below. Features that have additional settings when programming with the Bitwriter are indicated by the following icon: Default settings are in bold. The numbers in parentheses indicate the number of times the Status LED flashes. Menu 1 - Basic 1-1 Active/Passive Arming: When active arming, the system arms only when the transmitter is used. When set to passive, the system arms automatically 30 seconds after the last door is closed. To alert the consumer of passive arming, the siren chirps 20 seconds after the door is closed. This provides the consumer with an audible warning prior to the system actually arming. At the 30 second mark, the system arms, but the siren does not chirp. 1-2 Chirps On/Off: This feature controls the chirps that confirm the arming and disarming of the system. 1-3 Ignition Lock On/Off: When turned On, the doors lock 3 seconds after the ignition is turned On. 1-4 Ignition unlock On/Off: When ON this feature unlocks the doors when the ignition is turned Off 1-5 Active/Passive Locking: If passive arming is selected in Feature 1-1, then the system can be programmed to either lock the doors when passive arming occurs, or only lock the doors when the system is armed via the transmitter. Active locking means the system will not lock the doors when it passively arms. Passive locking means that the system will lock the doors when it passively arms. Note: Remember, when passive arming is selected, the unit will chirp 20 seconds after the last door is closed. The system does not actually arm or lock the doors until 30 seconds after the door has been closed Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

47 1-6 PANIC WITH IGNITION ON: This feature controls whether or not the panic mode is available with the ignition on. In some states, there are laws prohibiting a siren sounding in a moving vehicle. This feature makes the system compliant with these regulations. 1-7 DOOR LOCK PULSE DURATION: The default setting is 0.8 second door lock pulses. Some European vehicles, such as Mercedes-Benz and Audi require longer lock and unlock pulses to operate the vacuum pump. Programming the system to provide 3.5 second (2) pulses, accommodates the door lock interface in these vehicles. (Refer to Tech Tip 1041 on for wiring information regarding Type E door locks interfacing). The 0.4 second (3) pulse is required on some vehicles where the lock wires also control the windows. The 0.8 second pulse causes the windows to open/close when locking or unlocking. 1-8 FORCED PASSIVE ARMING ON/OFF: To use this feature, passive arming must be selected in Feature 1-1. When turned on, forced passive arming will ensure that the system will passively arm, even if a zone is left open or invalid. Forced passive arming occurs one hour after the ignition is turned off. 1-9 AUTOMATIC ENGINE DISABLE (AED) ON/OFF: AED is a full-time, passive starter disable that works independently of the security system. When turned on, the orange, ground-when-armed output (H1/12) will activate 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. The LED will flash at half its normal rate when the ignition is turned off to indicate that AED is active and will interrupt the starter in 30 seconds. AED does not occur in Valet mode and can be bypassed using the emergency override procedure. The transmitter can be used to disarm AED, however, the system must be armed and then disarmed, using the transmitter, to disarm AED ARMED WHILE DRIVING (AWD) ON/OFF: In the default setting (Armed While Driving), the system can be armed with the ignition on. When armed, the ground-when-armed is not active and the sensors are bypassed. The door triggers will remain active Directed Electronics. All rights reserved. 47

48 1-11 CODE HOPPING ON/OFF: The system uses a mathematical formula to change its code each time the transmitter and receiver communicate. This makes the group of bits or "word" from the transmitter very long. The longer the word is, the easier it is to block its transmission to the unit. Disabling the Code Hopping feature lets the receiver ignore the Code Hopping part of the transmitted word. As a result, the unit may have better range with Code Hopping off HORN OUTPUT PULSED/CONSTANT: Program for either a pulsed output or a continuous output when the system is triggered HORN FUNCTION FULL ALARM ONLY(1)/SIREN FUNCTION (20mS (2), 30mS (3), 40mS (4), 50mS (5): The horn output factory setting is programmed for sound when the alarm is triggered. When programmed for siren function the horn output triggers as the siren. (arming/disarming, WarnAway, and full trigger with timing options) COMFORT CLOSURE ON (1), OFF (2) Comfort Closure 2 (3): The system can be programmed to close the windows when the system is locked. If programmed On, the lock output provides a 20 second pulse when the system is locked. The output is cancelled if the unlock button is pressed. In the Off setting the alarm does not perform this function. (2) Comfort closure 1 - Activates the 20 second timer after the door lock pulse. (3) Comfort closure 2 - Activates the 20 second timer with the door lock pulse. To test if the car has the comfort closure: 1. Insert the key into the drivers door key cylinder. 2. Turn the key to the lock position and hold for about 10 seconds. Some cars require that you turn the key once, release, and then turn and hold into the lock position. If Comfort closure is available, the windows (and in some cars the sunroof) close. Important: Comfort closure can only be used on cars that have the capability of closing the windows (and on some cars the sunroof as well) with the key cylinder in the door Directed Electronics.
